Tom, I wanted to thank you for your recent assistance with our organization. Your wisdom, insight, patience, and perseverance has truly helped us turn our company around and create a learning organization. It is difficult to exactly quantify the amount of time saved with good leadership principles, but I would conservatively say we are 100% more effective as a team than we were before we started working with you ten months ago. We are clearly focused on the endeavors that are most profitable, we are much more capable of focusing on our clients’ needs, and our staff communicates much better among itself.

With deep appreciation,

Cynthia ClarkCOO - Custom Home Design and Construction

Peggy provided clarity

Peggy provided clarity on my 360 and all of the assessments. She really knows her stuff. She cared about my success and was very sincere. By the end of the coaching, I had a game plan. The dots were connected. THANK YOU!

T Squared Leadership provided me with the training

Working with Tom at T Squared Leadership provided me with the training, knowledge, and understanding of employees and associates in an ever-changing business world. Being a young entrepreneur, T Squared Leadership helped me to define my role and place in the marketplace. T Squared Leadership gave me the ability to define other peoples behavior’s in the business world to give myself a upper hand at conducting business, and a much better understanding of corporate techniques, philosophies, and behavioral tactics that occur in the workplace today!S

Tom is the Man to Work With

If you believe today’s outcomes are highly reflective of yesterdays’ choices, Tom is the man to work with. Tom is quick study in posing questions that cause me to appropriately reframe my assumptions and experiences to arrive at much better decisions today for what I desire of my organization and from myself tomorrow.

Peggy helped me identify issues

Peggy helped me identify issues that may be more significant than I’d imagined them to be—and then helped me identify ways to address/resolve them. She challenged me, and our conversation led me to come up with ideas that I hadn’t thought of before, that I will use when I get back to work, and encouraged me to prioritize them, too.

One of the Best!

I have worked with Tom as a leadership training program designer, trainer, and executive coach? He is hands down one of the best! Tom is creative and versatile, and whether working with individual contributors, middle managers, or executives, Tom’s involvement consistently yielded measurable positive outcomes.

I wanted to express my thanks for the excellent job that you did last month during the Coaching session at the NASA Project Leadership Program. I found your insights to be both perceptive and instructive and they will help me to make some small but necessary adjustments in my management style.

This mission was in progress during our session and just landed last Sunday at Edwards Air Force Base in California. Please accept it with my sincere thanks for all your help.

Taking my company to “The Next Level”

Tom Turney was a key component in taking my company to “The Next Level”. One month with Tom is like a semester in Business School. He changed the way I price my services, how I write proposals, and how to sharpen my creative skills!!!

I’ve really had a tremendously positive experience

Tom, I’ve really had a tremendously positive experience during this life-phase. And nearly every single day I am reminded of something I learned during my time with you, and I attribute a great deal of my interpersonal success to both the work we did together and the kind conversation we had just before I left. Every day I continue to appreciate the positive experiences that you help create through your life work. I really admire your passion and pursuit of it. There’s another word, but I’m not sure what it is: having the wisdom and insight to see, value, and stick with the priorities you know are most important. Something like faith, I think, in yourself, and in knowing what’s important.

I sincerely hope that your life experience is brilliant and beautiful, and that it will continue to be so.

With love and greatest appreciation,

CynthiaCOO - Construction
